Hello, I just got the visa valid from 2 Nov 2019 to 13 Oct 2024. It just have 4 years 11 months. Is it need to extend once for ILR?
Why the visa valid date is so weird?
If need extend, when I can extend it?? Is it need another CoS?? I don't know where can find more information for extend. HO only have one page. And don't have such information...

What were the dates for duration in your cos?

You can apply for ilr within 28 days before the 5th anniversary of your initial visa issue date, if you meet all the requirements.

1 Oct 2019 - 29 Sept 2024 :?

So I can apply ILR on 5 Oct 2024?? Even the visa will expire on 13 Oct 2024??
